BUCKSPORT — An auction has been set for March 24 for equipment at the former Verso Paper mill.
An auction firm called Biditup, which bills itself as “an industrial assets company,” has posted information about the auction at its website, www.biditup.com. Items that will be available include “paper making equipment, machine shop & roll making, fabrication, huge laboratory, overhead cranes, plant support equipment and more,” according to the online listing.
Dozens of photos of equipment that will put up for bid are posted on the auction firm’s site. More common items such as pickup trucks, forklifts, welders, metal lockers, tool cabinets and table saws are among the items shown.
